Max Verstappen, meanwhile, gained a spot after getting the better of Fernando Alonso, who didn’t get the best launch off the line.

Antonelli held on to second, with Oscar Piastri right behind and George Russell in fourth. There was contact between Isack Hadjar and Oliver Bearman, with the Brit spinning at the top of the hill.

The two Ferraris sit seventh and eighth, while Lewis Hamilton made up a few spots off the line to rejoin the top 10.
